Grapevine Municipal Golf Course is a public facility that I rate very high among public facilities. This is a 27 hole golf course; the three 9 hole courses are called Mockingbird, Bluebonnet, and Pecan. Each is increasingly difficult for an average recreational golfer. Fairways are wide, hazards are fair. As a regular there, I find the staff to be very friendly. The Clubhouse is fair, not very big. But there is a separate building for a banquet room. The food at Mulligans Bar is regular fare: hot dogs, burgers, grilled cheese, snacks and mixed drinks. It's all edible. Overall I really like Grapevine Muni as teh best public course in the area. Even better than Iron Horse, which some people like, but I find Iron Horse to have rude people out there (in general). See my review of Iron Horse in Hurst, Texas
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level
